How is it that Takara's getting **** on for doing a more accurate deco here? What did I miss?

Hard to say since Esmeral's never appeared in color form, IIRC.JelZe GoldRabbit wrote:Sodan-1 wrote:I quite like the new head mold of Bakudora.

Hmmmm, now that you mention "feminine", does anybody think he's not based Deszaras, but rather his (manga-only) wife, Esmeral? My wife would so get it if that was the case

Yeah, I'm not too impressed at all. Seems like you can save tons of money on these imports by just learning to paint. The Takara figs are pretty overpriced, considering they're the exact same figures. Or is the build quality/plastic better? I haven't ever noticed.
Anyway, when even the Takara version doesn't nail the look exactly, it's hard NOT to want to paint these ourselves...
